Spaces Shaped By Nature

Rimu Heights rests on the bush line of Maungatautari, Aotearoa, overlooking the Waikato Plains toward the Kaimai Ranges. As you wind up the gravel track, edged by New Zealand native bush and farmland, it feels as though you are arriving at a world of its own — a hidden and truly unique wedding venue in the Waikato, just minutes from Cambridge.

Set on a rural farm and surrounded by native bush, Rimu Heights offers a collection of rustic yet refined wedding and event spaces, each centred within the native bush. In every setting, guests are gently reconnected with nature — softened by birdsong, filtered light, and a sense of calm — creating an unforgettable experience for weddings and celebrations shaped by the land.

  • 6 Cable Tables & Umbrellas

Now reimagined as a rustic wedding and event space in the heart of the Waikato, The Barn sits quietly among native bush, offering couples a warm, eclectic atmosphere that feels both grounded and unforgettable — a hidden gem among wedding venues near Cambridge.

Positioned beneath the canopy of breathtaking native Tawa trees, this large open-aired platform offers a unique outdoor wedding and event space in the Waikato.

A gentle breeze moves through the leaves above, while Kawakawa and Silver Ferns line the bush path connecting Under the Trees to The Barn. It is a seamless journey through native bush — a setting that embodies the relaxed beauty of a rustic wedding venue near Cambridge, grounded in nature and shaped for meaningful gatherings.
